Original abstract

Agentic coding faces growing problems of affordability and wasted tokens. We introduce Blast Radius, a predictive memory management layer that estimates an incoming prompt's reach through coupled context and code channels. NECROPHORESIS enables reversible eviction by archiving dead context verbatim, while Recurring Dead Matter (RDM) identifies and buries repeatedly occurring transcripts. We formulate reversible context eviction over a Polish context space, providing a measurable foundation for retention, recurrence, and eviction while connecting context entropy to resurrection probability. Across seven OpenAI models, Blast Radius reduced token consumption by 17-26%, achieved the lowest overflow rate among tested policies, and remained byte exact reversible. Of 450 buried bodies, 378 were recurring dead matter and zero were recalled. Blast Radius operates beneath HCRC, determining which records to bury and how far an incoming prompt may reach into the codebase. This work contributes to the broader goal of Algosophy: making large language models and agentic coding more reusable and sustainable.
